Rockstar Games announces a spring 2013 release window for the console editions of Grand Theft Auto V, the next installment in the open-world action sequel (thanks nin). A Windows version is not mentioned at this time. Word is:

Developed by series creator Rockstar North, Grand Theft Auto V takes place in a re-imagined, present-day Southern California in the largest and most thriving game-world we have ever created set in the sprawling city of Los Santos and for miles beyond – from the tops of the mountains to the depths of the ocean.

Starting next week November 5, 2012, Grand Theft Auto V will become available for pre-order everywhere and fans can expect a host of new information to become available in November.

MP3 came out at the same time as Diablo 3, which is like, one of the most anticipated games ever. Their whole publicity push was completely buried(and it sucked also) and then once D3 died down, they did nothing else. I hope they're not gaging the PC interest with the failure of Payne 3.

But yeah, Rockstar are assholes. Making the game console only for A YEAR makes sure that the PC sales are as small as possible. GTA 4 was definitely a shitty port. Terrible.
